- Description:
- This catalog contains the results of the differential observations of 3939 stars made with the Transit Circle of the Bucharest Observatory, from 1955 July 1 to 1962 June 16. The positions were observed simultaneously with the Catalog of the Southern Reference Star program. 105 stars were selected to be near extragalactic nebulae; the remaining 3852 stars were from the KSZ list. The positions are on the FK3R system for the equinox, 1950.0. Mean errors are 0.029s and 0.49" in right ascension and declination, respectively. The catalog contains for each star, in addition to the positions: the BD number, magnitude, spectral type, individual mean errors, epoch of the observations, number of observations in each coordinate, number of the star in the list of areas near extragalactic nebulae, and notes.

- Description:
- We have performed 2D bulge/bar/disc decompositions using g, r and i-band images of a representative sample of nearly 1000 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We show that the Petrosian concentration index is a better proxy for the bulge-to-total ratio than the global Sersic index. We show that pseudo-bulges can be distinguished from classical bulges as outliers in the Kormendy relation. We provide the structural parameters and distributions of stellar masses of ellipticals, classical bulges, pseudo-bulges, discs and bars, and find that 32% of the total stellar mass in massive galaxies in the local universe is contained in ellipticals, 36% in discs, 25% in classical bulges, 3% in pseudo-bulges and 4% in bars.

- Description:
- We present the optical spectroscopy for the Blind Ultra Deep HI Environmental Survey (BUDHIES). With the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope, BUDHIES has detected HI in over 150 galaxies in and around two Abell clusters at z=~0.2. With the aim of characterizing the environments of the Hi-detected galaxies, we obtained multifibre spectroscopy with the William Herschel Telescope. In this paper, we describe the spectroscopic observations, report redshifts and EW[OII] measurements for ~600 galaxies, and perform an environmental analysis. In particular, we present cluster velocity dispersion measurements for five clusters and groups in the BUDHIES volume, as well as a detailed substructure analysis.

- Description:
- We explore the internal structure of red-sequence galaxies in the Coma cluster across a wide range of luminosities (-17>M_g_>-22) and cluster-centric radii (0<r_cluster_<1.3r_200_). We present the 2D bulge-disc decomposition of galaxies in deep Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope u, g, i imaging using GALFIT. Rigorous filtering is applied to identify an analysis sample of 200 galaxies which are well described by an 'archetypal' S0 structure (central bulge + outer disc).

- Bulge+disk decompositions of SDSS galaxies
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/196/11
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We perform two-dimensional, point-spread-function-convolved, bulge+disk decompositions in the g and r bandpasses on a sample of 1123718 galaxies from the Legacy area of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release Seven. Four different decomposition procedures are investigated which make improvements to sky background determinations and object deblending over the standard SDSS procedures that lead to more robust structural parameters and integrated galaxy magnitudes and colors, especially in crowded environments. We use a set of science-based quality assurance metrics, namely, the disk luminosity-size relation, the galaxy color-magnitude diagram, and the galaxy central (fiber) colors to show the robustness of our structural parameters. The best procedure utilizes simultaneous, two-bandpass decompositions. Bulge and disk photometric errors remain below 0.1mag down to bulge and disk magnitudes of g~19 and r~18.5. We also use and compare three different galaxy fitting models: a pure Sersic model, an n_b_=4 bulge+disk model, and a Sersic (free n_b_) bulge+disk model. The most appropriate model for a given galaxy is determined by the F-test probability. All three catalogs of measured structural parameters, rest-frame magnitudes, and colors are publicly released here.

- Description:
- We determine the iron distribution function (IDF) for bulge field stars, in three different fields along the Galactic minor axis and at latitudes b=-4{deg}, b=-6{deg}, and b=-12{deg}. A fourth field including NGC 6553 is also included in the discussion. About 800 bulge field K giants were observed with the GIRAFFE spectrograph of FLAMES@VLT at spectral resolution R~20000. Several of them were observed again with UVES at R~45000 to insure the accuracy of the measurements. The LTE abundance analysis yielded stellar parameters and iron abundances that allowed us to construct an IDF for the bulge that, for the first time, is based on high-resolution spectroscopy for each individual star.

- Description:
- Microlensing events have been observed regularly by surveys such as MACHO, OGLE and MOA. They offer an excellent way to probe the galactic structure, kinematics and stellar content. We have undertaken a follow-up study of 16 galactic microlensing events to determine masses and locations of the sources of these events within the Galaxy. Spectroscopy allows us to obtain information about the sources of the events. Low resolution spectra obtained with the Magellan I and II telescopes were analyzed to obtain radial velocities, spectral type and extinction by the method of Kane & Sahu (2003ApJ...582..743K). We also present results for the lens of the event using the microlensing light curve when possible. Light curves have been analyzed with the standard and the parallax models. We have inferred a configuration inside our galaxy for each event, and therefore a lens mass estimation using a suitable galaxy model. Lens mass determination in some cases shows massive lenses that can be considered black hole candidates. This is the case for the events MACHO-98-BLG-6, and OGLE-00-BUL-43. In our sample only three events do not have enough parallax signal for a successful estimation of the lens mass.

- Description:
- We present 947 radial velocities of RR Lyrae variable stars in four fields located toward the Galactic bulge, observed within the data from the ongoing Bulge RR Lyrae Radial Velocity Assay (BRAVA-RR). We show that these RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) exhibit hot kinematics and null or negligible rotation and are therefore members of a separate population from the bar/pseudobulge that currently dominates the mass and luminosity of the inner Galaxy. Our RRLs predate these structures and have metallicities, kinematics, and spatial distribution that are consistent with a "classical" bulge, although we cannot yet completely rule out the possibility that they are the metal-poor tail of a more metal-rich ([Fe/H]~-1dex) halo-bulge population.

- Description:
- This study's objective was to exploit infrared VVV (VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea) photometry for high latitude RRab stars to establish an accurate Galactic Centre distance. RRab candidates were discovered and reaffirmed (n=4194) by matching Ks photometry with templates via chisq minimization, and contaminants were reduced by ensuring targets adhered to a strict period-amplitude (Ks) trend and passed the Elorietta et al. (2016A&A...595A..82E) classifier. The distance to the Galactic Centre was determined from a high latitude Bulge subsample (|b|>4, RGC=8.30+/-0.36kpc, random uncertainty is relatively negligible), and importantly, the comparatively low color-excess and uncrowded location mitigated uncertainties tied to the extinction law, the magnitude-limited nature of the analysis, and photometric contamination. Circumventing those problems resulted in a key uncertainty being the MKs relation, which was derived using LMC RRab stars (MKs=-(2.66+/-0.06)logP-(1.03+/-0.06), (J-Ks)0=(0.31+/-0.04)logP +(0.35+/-0.02), assuming mu0LMC=18.43). The Galactic Centre distance was not corrected for the cone-effect. Lastly, a new distance indicator emerged as brighter overdensities in the period-magnitude-amplitude diagrams analyzed, which arise from blended RRab and red clump stars. Blending may thrust faint extragalactic variables into the range of detectability.

- Description:
- We report a measurement of the streaming motion of the stars in the Galactic bar with the red clump giants (RCGs) using the data of the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment II (OGLE-II). We measure the proper motion of 46961 stars and divide RCGs into bright and faint subsamples that on average will be closer to the near and far sides of the bar, respectively. We find that the far-side RCGs (4979 stars) have a proper motion of {Delta}<{mu}>~1.5+/-0.11mas/yr toward the negative longitudes relative to the near-side RCGs (3610 stars).
